When is a DEXA Scan Needed?
Our dedicated team often recommends DEXA scans for patients who:
- Have a family history of weak bones or osteoporosis
- Are going through the menopause or have low testosterone levels
- Other age-related concerns
- Suffer from rheumatoid arthritis, recurring injury, or persistent pain
- Recently had a fracture or show symptoms of bone loss
We also support pregnant women and individuals with specific health concerns, tailoring each consultation to your individual needs.
The Process: What to Expect
During your scan, our specialists will ensure you feel comfortable. The dual energy scanner delivers a very low radiation dose, similar to a standard x ray, while focusing on the spine, hip, or neck. The procedure is pain-free, quick, and provides informed results that allow your doctor to monitor progress and recommend suitable treatments.
Our trained professional will explain the findings of the DEXA scan and speak to you about any medical conditions that may need to be treated.
Beyond the DEXA Scan Tring: Complete Support
We believe in whole-person wellbeing. After your appointment, we’ll discuss treatment options, which may include:
- Lifestyle changes such as exercise, yoga, or sports massage to strengthen bones and aid recovery
- Blood tests to check for underlying causes, including hormonal changes
- Ongoing support every three months or weekly, depending on your needs
Whether your results show normal density or early signs of (acute) bone conditions that fill you with anxiety, our clinic provides expert service to keep you in control of your health.
